There's nothing quite like the tradition of Boxing Day football and for Sheffield United, there have certainly been some interesting games of the 26th of December... both good and bad.
So ahead of tomorrow's clash with Everton, we had a look back through the archives to remember nine classic Christmas crackers. (Sorry).
United, without a win since the game at Burton in November which saw them go top of the league but lose Paul Coutts to a broken leg, were back to their free-flowing best against sorry Sunderland at Bramall Lane.
